Leaves curling down, Claws

XII_XII_MrGreenstarted grow question 6y ago

I got claws on 1 of my plants, leaves are curling down. I think it's nitrogen toxicity but im not sure since they can handle a lot of nitrogen during veggie right? I already flushed to be sure. I would like to know what's your diagnose and how to handle it?

Looks like nitro toxicity. Yes plants need more nitrogen in veg then they do in flower, however too much will hinder proper bud development. You already flushed, so just wait and see if they improve.

Curled down leaves Should I be concerned about these curled down leaves? there are only a few per plant and they look good otherwise. I wanted to flip them to flower but wondering if I need to readjust my nutes and give them more time? Last 5 pics are of the curled leaves.

Cotyledons Twisted This happened to the last seed, so maybe it is me. I'm worried it won't point up. Second day seeding. I wet the soil when I planted and has been under a dome. I have not watered again. DLI is 12 and PPFD is just under 200. Any advice on what I am doing wrong?

Crumpled new growth?I've noticed that there are new leaves towards the base of the plant that are growing strangely. Could this be from low humidity? I've been having a hard time keeping it up. I also noticed that some of the leaves are clawing down (see week pics). Perhaps related? Haven't fed yet!

THIS IS NORMAL?Tem 1 ou 2 dias que algumas folhas começaram a ficar assim. Me parece que estão a enrolar para baixo ou um pouco tristes, apesar de continuarem crescendo. Gostaria de começar a alimentação delas hoje, mas os medidores de PH e TDS/EC só chegam em 3 dias. Devo me preocupar??
